Midsummer, Stockholm's Archipelago
 
Posted by Nanda Kumar Wed, May 27th 2009, 05:26 :: English
the midsummer morning
dawns bright and clear,
no threatening clouds above

schnapps and wine with
sill and potatoes, why,
a veritable smorgåsbord

light wooden tables
out in the sun, a song
with every schnapp

no cloud of mosquitoes
hovering above - a curse,
sometimes further northwards

white summer clothing, not
much of it - no wonder,
the summer is so short

dancing, holding hands,
around the midsummer pole,
with flowers in the hair

on hundereds of islands
in Stockholm's wide-spread,
wonderful archipelago


hundreds of angels watching,
changing colour (are they
chamelons?) with envy

but hundreds of teenagers
would wake up under the
blue sky, heads bursting
